'''Ignaz von Rundhart''' (1790-1838) was a Bavarian scholar and public servant who was dispatched to [[Greece]] to serve as President of the Privy Council ([[Prime Minister of Greece|Prime Minister]]) during the reign of [[King Otto]].

Von Rundhart had received a doctorate of law from the University of Munich, had authored two books, one of them a statistical survey of the Bavarian Kingdom, which he served as a member of the Council of State, prior to his appointment as Prime Minister of Greece.

When he arrived in [[Athens]] in February, [[1837]], he was received suspiciously by the English legate Lyons (who had been a supporter of his predecessor, [[Josef Ludwig von Armansperg|von Armansperg]]) and immediately found himself at also odds with the king over the role of the prime minister. King Otto was committed to an absolute monarchy and was resistant to a powerful chief minister. Von Rundhart had a series of clashes with king, and being disliked by [[Queen Amalia]], his resignation was accepted by King Otto 10 months after he arrived in Greece.
